The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO),
Geospatial Management Office (GMO) has developed this DHS Geospatial Data Model
(DHS GDM) in support of urgent DHS mission requirements. This DHS GDM is a standards based, logical data model to be used for collection, discovery, storage, and sharing of homeland
security geospatial data. The model will support development of the Department’s services-based
geospatial architecture, and will serve as an extract, transform, and load (ETL) template for
content aggregation.

DHS allies who have an interest in supporting this model are
encouraged to review this DHS GDM and provide comments to the FGDC
Homeland Security Working Group. This data model is being constructed
in phases. As new versions of the model are delivered, associated
documentation will be made available through this website.
